Senators not listed are currently in no danger of losing their seats. If anyone thinks they sent in a nomination and are not listed, they may send me a notice, but should take into account that voting may have to be lengthened to compensate for a late entry.
All voting should be done as follows: An e-mail, with your name as a citizen, sent to eric_lis@hotmail.com Note that this is not my usual address, but one with an underscore in it. You may only vote for a Senator for your own colony.
This letter will be available in the newspaper and on the message board.
Voting lasts from monday, august 27 to september 8, and with luck will be tabulated during the 9 and 10.
Now is the time for all good men (and women) to come to the aid of their party.
Begining today and running for a week, nominations are being accepted for eected positions. Send me all nominations to ericlis@hotmail.com. You may nominate yourself.
If you already hold a seat in the Senate: You will automatically be put in for re-election unless you ask otherwise. If the number of nominations to a colony is less than or equal to the number of seats open, people already holding seats will automatically hold theirs.
Remember, we are not voting yet, only nominating. Don't start voting of campagning. Nominations will last until August 26, and actual voting will begin after announcement of candidates on the 29th, and run until september 9.
